Activation Error, Activation Error for non-commercial licence Options

[Craigjw]

I am trying to activate a non-commercial licence, but keep getting an activation error.

I was able to add a non commercial licence, but after a week or so, I kept getting a lot of annoying pop ups in my task bar telling me that nFringe needed activating or something, so I deleted the licence from the licensing manager.

Now I can't add a licence to, it just gives a popup:

nFringe Activation Error
Could not activate nFringe
An error occurred while requesting a new license.

This IS the support thread isn't it?

No suggestions or anything that might be considered as even remotely helpful...

Please assist.

We believe we've narrowed the problem down to the following sequence of events:

1. The user requests a non-commercial license.
2. The user does not follow the link in the email verification.
3. After 5 days, the license is disabled since the email address was not verified.
4. No method is currently in place to re-send the validation email if the license is deactivated in this way, causing future license requests to fail for that user.

When I initially installed nFringe, I immediately opened up the validation email. I did not however follow the link, instead, I cut the key and did the process for manual validation and paste the key from the email into the nFringe licence, which I assumed would validate it, however about 5 days later, it starts giving me the activation error, which I have described.

nFringe does not have a system for manual validation. As stated in the email, you must follow the link to verify your email address.

I have installed Visual Studio 2012 and followed the directions given to me by my Lecturer at university to make nFringe work with 2012, but when I try to get a non-commercial license I get this same 'error occurred while requesting a new license'. I have set up a new email account, changed the way I present my name, changed the project name and I still get this stupid error.

I am trying to use nFringe with Visual Studio for a University Project.

Please advise.

We are working on a solution. We are having problems with our activation server that aren't simple to fix.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
